London: Complaints about the Bangladeshis' on-field performances have been a regular theme of the last eight years, but it is financial logic that has now led the leading cricket powers to turn against them, reports the Daily Telegraph.
With a growing number of Twenty20 tournaments competing for space in the calendar, teams like England and Australia are no longer prepared to play loss-making series against a weak team like Bangladesh.
Bangladesh overall record now stands at one win (against Zimbabwe) from 58 matches.
Bangladesh may be the seventh-most populous country in the world, but its development system has failed to produce any convincing international players for several years now. It has also been weakened by a spate of recent defections to the Indian Cricket League, including that of former captain Habibul Bashar.
